Truly magical Antigua

Antigua is a gem, we are completely under its charm. The little we have seen so far is just what we imagined. English Harbour, Jolly Harbour and its marina,  Hermitage bay and Deep bay are fabulous places. We love St John, its capital, so colourful and cheery. Pearns point and its unforgettable views in the late afternoon sun…

Glad we have made plans to spend Christmas and New Year here. It will give us more time to explore. But before that Ian and Sue are visiting for 2 weeks, we are waiting for them now.

Back in Guadeloupe – Nov 17

Guadeloupe was our last stop before we ran south to Grenada for the hurricane season. So this is where we start our second season in the Caribbean’s. We could not help going back to the old favourites, le Gosier, Marie Galante & les Saintes. We were pleased to see that Irma and Maria did not wreck these beautiful islands.

Back on Guadeloupe mainland, we explore Basse Terre and climb la Soufriere Volcano. We love Deshaies on Sunday, we had some nice walk along the river and the beaches. 

Glad we came back this way, this is definitely one of my favourite place in the Caribbeans.

Pointe a Pitre – Guadeloupe

Like being back home. We are picking up Francesca and Steve on the 1st November. A few days at anchor and then we’ll go to the marina to welcome them in. Another job to do sorting out the Torqueedo, our outboard has been playing up for a while.
